Abstract

New technologies, such as blockchain, are designed to address various system weaknesses, particularly those related to security. Blockchain can enhance numerous aspects of traditional banking systems by transforming them into digital, immutable, secure, and anonymous ledger. This paper proposes a new banking application ALBank, which is based on blockchain and smart contract technologies. Its functionality relies on invoking functions within smart contracts deployed on the Ethereum blockchain. This approach enables decentralization and enhances both security and trust. In this context, the paper first presents a critical analysis of existing research on blockchain and traditional banking systems, with a focus on their respective challenges. It then examines the Know Your Customer (KYC) process and its various models. Finally, it introduces the design and development of ALBank, a decentralized banking application built on the Ethereum blockchain using smart contracts. The results show that the integration of blockchain and smart contracts effectively addresses key issues in traditional banking systems, including centralization, inefficiency, and security vulnerabilities by storing critical data on a decentralized, immutable ledger, managing processes autonomously, and making transactions transparent to all users.
